Just wondering how much travelling people do supporting the Albion, home and away.
Not a "i'm a better fan than you" thread. Just interested.
I imagine some random figures being thrown up by our foreign based seagulls! :clap2:

My figure for 2013 calendar year (inc the games i'll attend between now and 31/12/13) is: 7941.2 Miles

{before anyone asks - I had a free afternoon and decided to work it out!}

:bhasign:

Assuming I travel 2 miles each way per home game I think I did 44 miles last season plus Charlton away which is about 55 miles each way.

So a WHOPPING 154 miles.

Hi I live in Chesterfield and each home game (season ticket holder east upper) is a 475 mile round trip, I think with the away games last year was just over 15000, with the away games

I travelled from Portugal for one game, which is 1300 odd miles. But I reckon 2000 overall including that one from Portugal last season going to Birmingham, Derby, Charlton, Palace and Sheffield Wednesday. :lolol:
 


Must be Cadiz Seagull, isn't he an STH and travels from Extremadura in Spain?

Yes I have a season ticket and it's 2,490 miles round trip to the Amex. Shame that's outside the free travel area.

Mind you, I don't go to every game (but I''ll be at Bournemouth, Barnsley and Leicester :) )

Does anyone remember the chant of ' there's only one Harry clipper ' on the train travelling to away matches? I still call the ticket inspectors Harry clipper to this day now my sons do the same fun times.

When I first had my season ticket I was living in Calgary, so a round trip of about 9000 miles. Of course I only made it to a few games each season.
Now I live in Dublin which is much more reasonable !

around 15K per season - two thirds of that is home games - might be up around 17K this season if I make all the games I plan to.

Around a mile to the Amex from my gaff and not going to away games makes a whopping 46 miles per season for me (assuming I make all home games and don't go to any cup games)

180.4 miles round trip. Shinfield Reading to Brighton,

Makes 4140 miles at least as I go to every home game. Also some away ones as well.

280 mile round trip from Cheltenham for home games - and I've done 4 away's this year so far - guessing it's at least 2000 so far

136 mile round trip for every home game, plus a few aways. Roughly 4,500 I guess.
